First of all, Class.forName(String className) is not actually a way to instantiate a class. It is a way to load a class and return the particular "Class" object associated with the loaded class. In fact, Class.forName() internally calls the associated ClassLoader's loadClass() method.The other methods, that I can recall are-

1) Cloning a given object to get a cloned instance.

2) Deserializing a serialized object to get the instance.But both the ways above, have some constraints.
